To you forums might be pain in ass but not to others. Newbies stomp on threads anyhow. Reply without quoting is also a newbie mistake on a mailing lists. Just the stuffup forum2mail gateway made it worse. Now a error in the forum engine that is a valid reason to split the mailing list temp. winehq-forum. Note words. If its just due to numbers of newbie is just get over it. They would have been there sooner or latter. I guess some of my posts have been with out title too making problem worse. Thinking answering without title is a normal forum thing but not a mailing list. If so that is a another back end engine problem.
